            <div class="agency_description">
                On October 1, 2006, the Secretary of Energy created the Office of Health, Safety and  Security (HSS) to integrate Department of Energy (DOE) Headquarters-level functions for  health, safety, environment, and security into one unified office. To accomplish this  important responsibility, HSS is focused on providing the Department with effective and  consistent policy development, technical assistance, education and training, complex-wide  independent oversight, and enforcement. Additionally, HSS addresses Department-wide  cross-cutting issues and enhances collaboration and sharing of technical expertise.  <span class="footnote">Agency description from <a href="http://hss.energy.gov/whoarewe.html"> DOE HSS website</a>.</span>
